Being an entrepreneur is rewarding but tough; there are many things we must keep in mind:

• Fires, disasters and other severe weather
• Physical theft and computer and data security threats
• Injury to employees or customers
• Quality control/poor quality product that causes damage or injury and more……
• Having written policies for people who do any driving for your business
• Obtaining Certificates of Insurance from drivers, suppliers, vendors and service providers.

Making sure we review the language in contracts, purchase orders, sales agreements, etc. to ensure we are taking on unnecessary risk and liability.

Slip, trips and falls by employees or customers

Proper employee training and safety management
